Beyond

Posted on April 18, 2019 | 21 Comments

After days of rain
Morning sunshine glows again
Noisy birds approve

Grass soft as frosting
Leaves drizzling sugar dew
Restful world awaits

Curious cat roams
Beyond the manicured lawn
Into shadowed woods

Ancient wings unfold
As warm fresh blood approaches
Magic spell is cast

Cat comes home with eyes aflame
Different somehow still the same

    Good one. Is the cat affected by demons?

    A very evocative poem, it is easy to imagine that there is something just beyond that dark horizon when walking in woodland. Enjoyed it…
